Chapter 6
Kairo returned again, and Madeline followed behind him.
Behind Kairo, she shyly stayed out of sight. "Azalea, coming in without asking you first, you won't be upset, right? Otherwise, I should leave."
She nervously wrung her sleeves, acting like she was going to go.
Kairo grabbed her and spoke coldly, "If she hadn't sent people to wreck the clinic and cause trouble for you, you wouldn't need to be forced out."
"This is what she has to pay you back!"
I sneered.
"The luggage was already moved here. What are you still acting for? As long as you're not scared of being beaten to death by me in the middle of the night, you can stay here however you want."
Madeline's body froze. She pressed her lips together and looked at Kairo with hurt.
"Kairo, I should just leave."
Kairo's face darkened, and the way he looked at me turned extremely cold.
"Have you caused enough trouble?"
Pain hit my heart, and I pushed back even more.
"Who brought the mistress into the villa? Am I the one causing trouble? If you don't want to look at me, you can just take her and leave!"
Kairo's brow pulled tight, holding back as he spoke, "Azalea, you gave your word to let Madeline leave; you were the one who broke that word first."
"I told you it was not me."
I replied in a cold tone.
"That's enough. I do not want to listen to your arguing anymore. Madeline, I will let her remain. If you cannot accept it, then leave!"
Kairo's eyes turned red as he spoke in anger.
I stared at them coldly and sneered.
"Alright, I will leave."
Kairo had not expected me to agree that quickly; worry crossed his mind.
Madeline tugged at his sleeve, happily said, "Great, Kairo. I can move in."
His focus shifted to Madeline, and he gently touched her head with care.
When he looked back at me again, his tone became softer.
"Okay, you are still pregnant, just think of it as building blessings for the baby. I got you a present, see if you like it."
From his coat pocket, Kairo casually pulled out a present box, inside lay a scarf in an old-fashioned color.
With a gentle smile, Madeline said, "I chose it with Kairo, Azalea. If you like it, then that's good."
"Scarf?" Seeing the diamond necklace from the same brand around Madeline's neck, I coldly laughed.
This scarf was clearly a free item that came with the diamond necklace.
Kairo had given the costly diamond necklace to Madeline, yet handed me the free piece.
I no longer wanted to see the pleased look in Madeline's eyes, so I casually took the scarf and walked upstairs.
The moment I stepped into the room, I tossed the scarf into the garbage bin.
Even without being Mrs. Harrison, I had not dropped so low as to accept free items.
Taking out my phone, I urged Attorney Jade once more.
[No matter the cost, I want to complete the divorce agreement as quickly as possible.]
Once everything was settled, I sat down at the dressing table.
At that moment, Kairo came in.
He reached out, trying to touch my hair, but I moved away right away.
Kairo's eyes grew dim for a second, then he soothed, "Azalea, getting upset is bad for the baby, stop making a scene."
"I assure you, just let Madeline remain here for three days, alright?"
He persuaded, stepping nearer to me.
The scent on his body was very strong, making me feel sick.
I shoved his hand aside, shut my eyes hard for a second.
"Kairo, I already told you, I will leave. You can let her stay for however many days you want."
Kairo's brows pulled together.
He had not thought I would push back this much.
Kairo still wanted to use the old ways to calm me; he turned a little, trying to kiss my lips.
His hand also moved into my collar.
"Azalea, the baby is already eight months old, we can......"
Thinking that before returning, he had kissed and held Madeline.
I only felt that Kairo being close made my whole body reject it.
I said in a calm tone, "Kairo, Madeline is placed by you in the next room, are you not worried she will hear it?"
At once, Kairo stopped what he was doing.
Some guilt passed through his eyes, just when he was about to speak.
Madeline, dressed in a see-through nightdress, showed up at the doorway.
Her tone carried fear, soft and fragile, "Kairo, when I shut my eyes, it's those people from earlier. I'm very afraid. Can you come stay with me for a moment?"
After speaking, she glanced at me with a slight boldness, then softly said, "Azalea, I only need to borrow Kairo for a short time."
I coldly laughed, knowing Madeline was putting on an act again.
Yet Kairo walked out, full of concern.
"Azalea, I will come back soon."
After saying this, he held Madeline and turned to walk out of the room.
I drew in a deep breath, tightened my fists until they went pale, and my chest also felt a heavy ache.
Chapter 7
That night, the sounds of moans from the room beside mine woke me.
"Kairo... ah... gentler......"
The woman's soft moaning slowly became louder.
My eyes opened wider bit by bit, unable to accept they were truly this bold.
The man's heavy breaths soon came after.
"Kairo, I know even now you still only love me."
"Don't push me away, I don't need a title, as long as you stay beside me, that is enough."
Loud hitting sounds rang out. Kairo spoke in a hoarse tone, "Madeline, I love you too......"
The noises continued one after another.
My heart felt like it was pierced by a sharp knife, and tears also kept streaming down.
Kairo had betrayed me once again.
Pain spread through my whole body, and my abdomen also began to cramp uncontrollably.
I kept taking deep breaths, biting my lips tightly, forcing myself to stay calm.
I dialed Kairo's phone.
The vibrating sound soon came from the room next door.
Kairo had no plan to answer at all and even directly rejected the call.
My heart felt like it was being sliced by knives, my whole body shaking uncontrollably.
The stomach pain left me with no strength at all.
Using the last bit of strength, I held myself up, crawled to the door, and half-kneelt as I knocked on the door next door.
"Kairo...... my stomach hurts badly......"
The moaning sounds inside the room did not stop.
Madeline acted concerned, "Kairo, I hear something at the door."
Kairo replied with heavy breathing, "Ignore her, she is using the child to act pitiful again."
"What if it is real?"
Kairo coldly laughed. "If it is real, then let her miscarry again. As long as I have you, that is enough."
Wet kissing noises echoed.
I stared at the door before me that would not open in despair, and shouted loudly, "Kairo!"
Yet there was no reply from inside at all.
I fell to the floor in pain, along with the severe pain, a smell of blood came from beneath me.
My face turned pale in fear, and I quickly took out my phone and called emergency services.
Half an hour later, I was finally taken to the hospital.
Until I was gone, that door never opened.
My sight went dark, tears kept running, and my heart was full of panic.
After I woke again, I immediately touched my abdomen.
After realizing the baby still softly reacted to me, I finally let out a breath.
But what rose up was endless anger.
I had not thought Kairo could do this to such a degree.
Even knowing I was pregnant in the room next door, he still stayed with Madeline.
Even after I called out for help, he still paid no attention to my request.
In his mind, my life and the baby's life were not as important as his moment of pleasure with Madeline.
Thinking about this, my eyes turned completely cold.
In the next moment, I called the bodyguard's number.
"Set the villa on fire for me!"
I want to destroy everything completely!
Chapter 8
The huge fire destroyed everything.
Watching the video on my phone, I laughed wildly, yet tears slid down from the corners of my eyes.
That villa held too much of my past.
Too many memories of Kairo and me.
It was just a pity, he was not worth it at all.
Soon after, I got a call from Kairo.
I stared at the phone, lighting up with no emotion, just like how Kairo had ignored my call for help last night.
The phone quickly went silent.
I knew Kairo would not stop so easily.
As expected, not long after, he rushed in with red eyes.
He looked at me with a cold and disgusted expression, "The fire at the villa, was it done by you? Do you know Madeline and I almost burned to death?"
I nodded calmly, even with a smile, and said, "I did it, what a pity, it did not burn you to death."
At this moment, the fake bond between us finally broke.
Kairo fixed his eyes on me, his look turning colder and more heartless.
He gripped my chin hard and coldly laughed.
"Azalea, why can't you ever learn to act like you don't know? It's normal for men in this circle to keep a few women."
"I stayed loyal to you for five years. If it weren't for you sending people to wreck Madeline's clinic, I would not have brought her back. Now that things have reached this point, I will never leave her alone."
"Everything you did pushed me step by step closer to her, Azalea. Is this what you wanted?"
I bit my teeth hard, my eyes turning red.
"It was you who went behind my back first, you didn't even care about the child in my belly, Kairo, who really crossed the line?"
Kairo's eyes turned dark right away.
"Azalea, if it were not for that agreement back then, and that short-lived child in your belly, do you think I would have stayed?"
"You got the title of Mrs. Harrison, isn't that enough?"
He looked down at me, asking seriously.
So this was the reason he stayed back then.
Not due to affection for me, nor care for the baby.
But because of that small sense of fake regret, and the letter of agreement!
Tears fell down like rain, my fingers dug into my hand, I could not keep it in anymore, and all at once, I hit Kairo hard across the face.
"Kairo! You animal!"
Kairo's head turned to the side from the hit, he wiped the red at the edge of his lips, coldly laughed, and said calmly, "I do not let go of Madeline again, if you still want the role of Mrs. Harrison, then live with her in peace, these days, I do not come to the clinic to see you again, think it over yourself."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
With a bang, the ward door was shut and closed loudly.
I dropped weakly onto the bed, my belly sending waves of pulling pain.
In a blur, I seemed to remember Kairo when he asked me to marry him.
So young, when he kissed me, he was even shaking.
"Azalea, I will love you forever, treat you kindly."
Back then, five years ago, I should have realized that his so-called forever promise had already ended.
And I should have walked away sooner.
But because of old feelings, I wavered.
In the end, I got hurt again.
Thinking about this, with shaking hands, I booked a ticket for three days later.
I would never believe his promises again.
I would not want to see him again, forever!
